Several cars of the GilpinTramway are on the narrow gauge railroad track in the foreground of this view near Quartz Hill above Central City, Colorado. The GilpinTramway was used to haulores from the mines in the Central City area down the hill to Blackhawk, where they were transferred to trains of the Colorado & Southern Railroad Company. Several mine complexes stand in the midground and background. Patches of snow lie on the ground near the tramway cars as well as on ; the hills in the distance.
